Chapter 659 A Game of Weaknesses

The Villain’s Wife 659 A Game of Weaknesses

"I— " Qin Yuanfeng blinked. "You still didn’t answer my question."

Once again Lily let out long heartfelt laughter. Her shoulders shook as she hugged her stomach. Seeing Qin Yuanfeng was only staring at her as if she had gone insane, Lily fought the urge to even laugh out loud and turned serious. "Well... It’s not hard. Just put yourself in her shoes and you will know what she will do next."

"What do you mean?"

"Like... think like her. You know... as if you are inside her." She explained.

"I can’t." Qin Yuanfeng answered, his face stern. There was no way he would be able to think that Chen Shi would attempt to kill her ex-husband and frame someone else for it.

"It takes a lot of practice." She shrugged. "And evil thoughts."

"Oh." Qin Yuanfeng nodded. It seems this was the only answer Lily was willing to give him. Or maybe his understanding about the matter was not as thorough and deep. He should—

"Stop thinking about it," Lily said. "I am simply good at guessing. This is not a case that can be explained using computers and science."

"But... I can use a program that can predict someone’s reactions. You know... like the probability of them doing something."

"Impressive."

"It is." He agreed. "So the bet."

"Hm? What about it?"

Instead of saying something, Qin Yuanfeng turned towards the computer and started typing various characters Lily is not familiar with. "Chen Shi has a flight to Singapore tomorrow. The money is already in the account. What am I supposed to do with this?"

"I don’t know, spend it?" Lily said. "Buy stocks, invest, do whatever you like. It’s your money anyway. It’s not like you will not earn more next time."

"Oh." He nodded, understanding flashing in his eyes. It seems this wouldn’t be the last time they will swindle someone. "Then... do you have other people we can swindle?"

"Of course! You are indeed a very fast learner." Lily beamed before turning towards her secretary. "Yang Mi?"

"President we have a couple of things we can use to blackmail money from someone. First the Liu Family, Liu Chin’s scandal can ruin her reputation. There is also her brother. We can easily ask him to give us money or the proof of him sleeping around with married women will be sent to his grandfather."

"How about Madam He?" Lily lifted an eyebrow.

"I— We have the proof she is cheating. But— "

"Send a file to Mr. He about her cheating. Include an account number under Adalind’s name." Lily gave a sinister smile. "Make him hate Gannon and the Liu family for keeping this secret."

"And the money?" Qin Yuanfeng asked. "I mean... this information is ours. Why are you giving money to Adalind?"

Lily let out another boisterous laughter. It seems working with Qin Yuanfeng would make her look younger from laughing too much! "Who says we’re giving it to her? After Mr. He traces the account, let’s empty it. Transfer it to another account he cannot trace."

"But... this will cause chaos in your neighborhood, wouldn’t it?" Qin Yuanfeng asked. He eyed Lily and Yang Mi’s stern expression. It is obvious Yang Mi was already used to seeing Lily like this.

"What chaos?" Lily turned towards him. Slowly her lips lifted into a mischievous grin. "We are here for the money, alright?"

"That is right." Qin Yuanfeng nodded. "Then give it to me. I will work on it now." He turned towards his computer. When Yang Mi saw this, she immediately gave Qin Yuanfeng her tablet that contained all the information.

Then she silently sat next behind the twins. Lily’s mind alone was frightening. Now that she met someone who had the same exact DNA as hers, it seemed to make her more... insane.

Insanity.

That is the only term Yang Mi could use for the twins. One was equipped with Lilian’s scheming mind while one was equipped with otherworldly skills in programming. Wasn’t that a scary combination?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Alright... maybe we can do five million for now. Tell Mr. He we will reveal this information if he won’t give the money."

"But... he is processing his divorce right now. This information will help him, no?"

"Dummy," Lily rolled her eyes. "Mr. He is a man... you know an alpha male. How could he take the embarrassment of his wife cheating on him with a younger, more handsome man that is not even as rich as him? Yuanfeng ah, think about it. This is about the man’s ego. He is rich, successful and a little good looking. Do you think he will accept his wife loves someone who has less status than him?"

"You have a point. But... what if he confronts his wife about this matter?"

"To what?" Lily fired back. "To hear the truth from her? Isn’t that more hurtful? His ego won’t be able to take it."

Qin Yuanfeng nodded. It seems that Lily’s approach was much deeper than he originally thought. If he would ask Lily how she knew about this, he was sure she would once again tell him to put himself in their shoes.

Now to Qin Yuanfeng, that was very hard to do. After all, his mind was used to using logic. This was the exact opposite of Lily’s emotional approach. Now that he finally thought about it, Lily’s approach was actually scarier than his.

Lily was playing with the psychology and emotions of people. This was not a game of who was smarter, wiser or the most intelligent one in the room. This was a game of weaknesses. A person’s weakness was Lily’s greatest weapon.

"Alright. I am done. Shall I send the email to him now?"

"No," Lily answered. "What time is it?"

"Ten thirty."

"Hmmm... Send it before lunch." Lily smiled.

"Why?" He asked.

"Hungry people are more irritable." She answered before she rose from her seat. "Speaking of lunch... I am hungry." She smiled towards Qin Yuanfeng as if they just didn’t do something that could ruin someone’s life. "Do you want to join me for lunch?"
